DJ: “That you seriously think there is a difference between the Democrats and the Establishment Republicans shows how much you’ve been indoctrinated and brainwashed.”
There’s a huge difference. GOP didn’t pass Obamacare.

I understand people’s frustration but we know from past experience that horrible shite happens when the dems are in charge so obviously there is an appreciable difference even if the GOP isn’t good enough and can’t get rid of the shite that the dems passed when they’re back in power.
No need to master debate pointlessly about this now.
Anyway, Kaslin, Carr did pretty well, lost by only 9 points despite so called conservative leaders ignoring him until it was too late. If they gave him the push they gave that stupid doctor in Kansas, he’d have won. If he got all the votes that went to 5 losers who had no business running and splitting the vote he would have won without any extra help.
Given that the outcome was certain in the general election I don’t see a reason to castigate either of you, Kaslin for voting RINO or DJ for casting a protest vote for a certain loser.
If you wanna get rid of the loser RINO Senators a primary is the only way to actually make it happen. Some alleged conservative conspiracy nut running as a dem will never win, nor will some random person with no money running as an Independent. Supporting viable conservative primary candidates should be the priority. On that we should all be able to agree.
Merry Christmas my friends.
Well, what we’ve seen is the same crap since after FDR was elected in 1932. Before the term RINO was used, and even (I believe) “Eastern Establishment”, there was the “me-too’er.” These “Me-too’ers” were ones who dismissed wholescale the Harding-Coolidge Conservative agenda and embraced everything Democrat. They supported the leftist agenda with the argument they would not change anything, only that they could manage Big Gubmint Socialism more efficiently than the Democrats.
So what have we seen with our “Republican Majority” ? Management, not elimination, of Democrat Socialist policies. It’s a total joke. Dems enact it with desultory “wink-wink” opposition from the GOP and then the GOP adds on to it once in power. We keep getting rolled and rolled.
At this point, it’s time to destroy this whole entire dog and pony show.
